"The Queen" version 2 - next stage
As I started to block in the colours of the Queen's outfit, the portrait became overwhelmingly pink. I needed to over-paint with several coats of purple in order to correct this. The brooch is to be the Warwickshire Bear and Ragged Staff, not the one in the original photograph, so I needed to size this to work in the portrait and angle it so that the foreshortening works in its position on the Queen's jacket.
